B 2. Carefully plan where you install the heater. Correct
combustion air supply and vent pipe installation are
very important. If not installed correctly, fatal
accidents can be caused by lack of air, carbon
monoxide poisoning or fire.
B 11. The heater must not be installed in an unheated
area where temperatures will reach 36°F or lower. If
the heater is left in an area susceptible to such
temperatures, refer to Section 5.4 on Winterizing.
B 12. In areas where water supply has a high mineral
content, a water softener is strongly recommended.
Damage to the water heater resulting from hard
water/scale deposits will not be covered under warranty.
B 13. In areas with warm inlet water (70°F or greater),
increasing flow rate at low flowing fixtures may be
required to prevent outlet temperatures from
exceeding the desired temperature set point.
B 3. When the unit is installed indoors with ROOM
SEALED (twin pipe) combustion air and venting, it is
permitted to be located in bathrooms, bedrooms and
occupied rooms that are normally kept closed. See
chapter 3.6. If the unit will be installed indoors and
use indoor combustion air, the place where you
install the heater must have enough ventilation. The
National Fuel Gas Code and National Fire
Codes do not allow UNSEALED gas fired water
heater installations in bathrooms, bedrooms
or any occupied rooms normally kept closed.
See chapter 3.2 and 3.5.
B 4. You must vent your heater. See section on
VENTING.
B 5. The appliance and its gas connection must be leak
tested before placing the appliance in operation.
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual gas
shutoff valve (not supplied with heater) during any
pressure testing at pressures in excess of ½ Psig
(3.5 kPa).
B 6. Keep water heater area clear and free from
combustibles and flammable liquids. Do not locate
the heater over any material which might burn.
B 7. Correct gas pressure is critical for the optimum
operation of this heater. Gas piping must be sized to
provide the required pressure at the maximum output
of the heater, while all the other gas appliances are in
operation. Check with your local gas supplier and
see Chapter 3.7 Gas piping and connections.
B 8. Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to
shut off, turn off the gas supply at the manual gas
shut off valve, on the gas line. Note: manual gas
shutoff valve is not supplied with the heater.
B 9. Do not use this appliance if any part has been
underwater. Immediately call a qualified service

your safety and for proper heater operation, you must
provide combustion air to the heater and a proper
exhaust vent system.
Follow the guidelines below:
B 1. Locate the heater where venting, gas and
plumbing connections are feasible and convenient.
3.3
The 2400 E is design certified for installation on a
combustible wall (see 3.4 Mounting installation)
provided the floor covering below the heater is
noncombustible. For installations in an alcove or closet,
maintain the minimum clearances to combustible and
non-combustible materials listed below. See also Fig. 5.
A. Top 12 inches (306 mm)
B. Front 1 inches (25 mm)
C. Back 0 inches
D. Sides 1 inches (25 mm)
E. Bottom 12 inches (306 mm)
Clearances from any exhaust vent pipe are dependent
upon the clearance requirements of the stainless steel
vent pipe manufacturer. Single wall stainless steel
(AL29-4C) vent pipe (vent type rated for Category III
appliances) must be used when exhaust venting this
appliance. See 3.6 Venting.
3.4
Warning:
Flammable
materials,
gasoline, pressurized containers, or any
other items or articles that are potential
fire hazards must NOT be placed on or
adjacent to the heater. The appliance
area must be kept free of all
combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable vapors and liquids.
Warning: The water heater must be
installed in a conditioned space where
temperatures will not fall below 36F.

Mounting installation
Warning: before starting installation:
B 2. The hot water lines should be kept short to save
energy. Centrally locating the water heater is
recommended to keep hot water distribution times
even throughout the structure. It is always best to
have hot water lines insulated.
Warning: The water in this water
heater is cold and always remains cold
except for the times the burners are on.
In the event of power outage during
freezing
temperatures,
it
is
recommended that the heater be
drained.
See chapter 5.5 “Winterizing” for
draining instructions.
Heater placement and clearances
B check that there are no loose parts
inside the appliance
B check the gas type of the heater
matches the gas supply you will be
connecting the heater
B ensure that gas pipe, gas valve, mixer,
fan and burner have no damage and are
properly fitted.
i
Front cover should be removed (see
instructions on page 5) in order to inspect
components visually.
B Secure the wall mounting bracket provided with the
heater to a wall surface.
Warning: Do not install this appliance
on a carpeted wall. The heater must be
mounted on a wall using appropriate
anchoring materials.
If wall is sheathed with plasterboard, it is recommended
that two support boards, either 1”x4” or 1/2" (minimum)
plywood first be attached across a pair of studs. Then
attach the heater’s bracket to the upper support board.
The heater should be kept level on the wall surface. See
Fig. 6.

pitch down towards termination ¼ inch for every foot of
horizontal length.
Single pipe method:
Although it is permissible to draw combustion air from
the inside, it is not the manufacturer’s recommended
installation method. Always install a 3 inch elbow on the
top of the combustion air inlet adaptor to prevent
foreign objects from falling into the unit.
If a single pipe installation is utilized, follow guidelines
below for providing adequate combustion air for the
water heater as well as any other appliances that may
consume air in the space. Always follow local codes if
they are more stringent.
Fig. 6
Mounting the heater
3.5
Combustion air requirements
Warning: In areas where outside
temperatures commonly fall below
36°F, a twin pipe venting system is
required. Failure to do so may result in
cold outside air being drawn across the
heat exchanger causing it to freeze and
burst. This failure is not covered under
the manufacturer’s warranty.
Warning: When installed in an
environment where corrosive chemicals
or dirty air are present, the twin pipe
system is required.
Twin pipe method:
The 2400 E is designed as a sealed combustion
appliance. It is recommended that the combustion air
be provided by a dedicated 3” or 4” pipe to the outside.
The combustion air pipe may be aluminum flex, PVC or
any other rigid or semi rigid sealed 3” or 4” pipe. The
combustion air inlet, whether terminating vertically or
horizontally, must be located in such a manner as to
provide a minimum 3 foot clearance from the exhaust
vent terminator. See Fig. 17 Letter I.
The maximum length of the combustion air inlet is 26
feet with one elbow. Subtract 2.5 feet for additional
elbows. Maximum number of elbows permitted is 3.
Horizontally terminating combustion air pipes must
6 720 608 263
Fig. 7
Single pipe installation
The 2400 E water heater holds cold water in its copper
heat exchanger and water valve when not in use.
Because of this, any cold air that comes through the
unit's vent pipe could freeze and damage these
components. This Installation Manual specifies the
minimum vertical vent pipe and the amount of
combustion air required for this unit. When all
requirements are followed, the unit will operate properly
and safely. However, there may still be a risk of freezing
due to negative draft if the other combustion appliances
in the building are not supplied with sufficient
combustion air. A wood stove or furnace can pull its
combustion air from the heater's vent pipe, allowing the
cold incoming air to freeze the cold water in the heat
exchanger. Supplying more combustion air for all
combustion appliances is the solution. A HVAC
specialist should be consulted to design solutions for
providing more combustion air. Observe the following
guidelines:
Installations in structures that have been tightly
constructed (air infiltration rate of 0.40 ACH or less)
must be provided with combustion air per the National
9
Fuel Gas Code. Consult a HVAC specialist if your air
infiltration rate is questionable.
The space must have two permanent openings, one
commencing within 12 inches of the top and one
commencing within 12 inches of the bottom of the
enclosure. Each opening must have a minimum free
area of one square inch per:
• 1000 Btu/hr if all air is taken from inside the building
• 2000 Btu/hr if all air is taken from the outside by
horizontal ducts
• 4000 Btu/hr if all air is taken from the outside by
direct openings or vertical ducts.
Or the space must be provided with one permanent
opening or duct that is within 12 inches of the ceiling of
the enclosure. This opening must have a minimum free
area of one square inch per:
• 3000 Btu/hr if all air is taken from the outside by a
direct opening or vertical duct.
Louvers, grills and screens have a blocking effect. If the
effective free area is not known, increase the sizes of
your openings by 300% if your louvers are wood and by
35% if your louvers are metal. Refer to the National Fuel
Gas Code for complete information.

Minimum exhaust vent length
Vent material and specifications
Establish vent clearances that comply with the vent
manufacturer's specifications. In all cases follow local
codes.
Note: Listed thimbles or collars are necessary to pass
through wall and ceiling partitions. If the vent system
passes through combustible areas where the vent
clearance requirements cannot be maintained, it is
permissible to chase straight sections of sealed 3 inch
single wall vent through 4 inch (or greater) Type-B vent.
The distance to combustibles using this chase
technique is 1 inch (check local codes).
Warning: Type-B vent must never be
used as the actual exhaust vent system
for the appliance, because it is not gas
tight. This will create a serious health
hazard and void the warranty.
Vent lengths
The appliance should be located as close to the point
of termination as possible. The maximum vent length is
26 feet (8 m) with one 90 degree elbow. Subtract 2½
feet from the total vent length for each additional 90°
elbow used (a maximum of three 90° elbows are

Condensate drain tube requirements
Exhaust collar condensate drain installation
(supplied with heater)
B The condensate drain tube kit must be used for all
installation types. Failure to properly install
condensate drain will void the warranty.
B When installing the condensate drain tube kit on the
exhaust collar (see diagram below), be sure to form a
trap by means of a 3" (76.2 mm) loop partially filled
with water. This loop must be as low as possible to
allow proper drainage of condensate. The supplied
tube is 3/8" ID high temperature silicone and must be
attached to the condensate port on the exhaust collar
with its supplied gear clamp (first remove brass
screw from port).
B To increase tube length, connect vinyl tubing (not
supplied with heater) to the supplied tube. Do not
reduce tubing diameter when using connector or
additional tubing.
Note: Condensate must be disposed of according to
local codes.
Note: Do not install condensate drain in areas where it
may freeze.
1. Install condensate drain as close to heater as
possible.
2. Use 3/8" ID high temperature silicone tubing to
connect to condensate drain port. Do not use copper
piping for any portion of the condensate drain.
3. Form a condensate trap by means of a 3" loop and
fill bottom of loop with water.
4. To increase the tube length, connect to end of the
high temperature silicone tubing with vinyl tubing,
PVC or CPVC pipe. Do not reduce the internal
diameter at any point.
5. Dispose of condensate according to local codes.
B The condensate must be disposed of according to
local regulations.
Condensate port on exhaust collar
1. Remove brass hex head
screw
2. Fit tube with
gear clamp
3. Loop size and location. Coil tube into 3” loop
with nylon tie (don't crimp tubing) and fill bottom
of loop with water
Fig. 12 Exhaust collar condensate drain installation
Note: No part of supplied silicone tube should be
installed above condensate tapping or improper drainage may occur. (see Fig. 12).
External condensate drain installation (not
supplied)
An additional external condensate drain must be
installed under the following conditions:
• Vertical terminating vent installations
• Horizontal terminating vent installations where the
total vent length is greater than 5 feet
• Vent installation where any section of the exhaust
vent pipe passes through an unconditioned space.

Fig. 13 Required condensate drain installation
(Combustion air piping not shown)
3.6.4
Room sealed installation (Twin pipe)
Warning: In areas where outdoor
temperatures commonly fall below
36°F, a twin pipe venting system is
required. Failure to do so may result in
cold outside air being drawn across the
heat exchanger causing it to freeze and
burst. This failure is not covered under
the manufacturer's warranty.
B Although it is permitted to draw combustion air from
inside the structure in warm climates, the recommended method is to provide combustion air through
13
a 3" or 4" pipe from the outside. See Chapter 3.5 for
more direction on combustion air.
B To reduce pressure differentials between the exhaust
and combustion air intake, it is recommended that
both terminators exit on the same plane. See Fig. 14
for an example horizontal twin pipe termination and
Fig. 15 for the vertical twin pipe termination example.
B Use of two 90° elbows (candy-cane) is an acceptable termination for combustion air intake from the
roof. See Fig. 15 for an example.
B Screening (no smaller than 1/4" mesh) is recommended on candy cane termination.
B Exhaust should terminate above and must be a minimum of 3 feet from must intake termination.
B The exhaust vent must terminate above the roof surface with an approved vent cap not less than 3 feet
(0.6 m) above the highest point where it passes
through the roof and at least 2 feet (0.6 m) higher
than any vertical wall or similar obstruction within 10
feet (3.1m). See Fig. 16 and Table 5.

The masonry chimney may have to be tile or metal lined
before the insertion of the gas vent pipe; check local
codes for clarification. You may not vent any other fuel
burning appliances into any free space remaining in the
chimney. The vent terminator must extend at least 3 feet
(0.9 m) above where the chimney meets the roofline and
at least 2 feet (0.6 m) higher than any vertical wall or
similar obstruction within 10 feet (3.1 m). The top of the
chimney must be sealed to prevent rain water or other
elements from entering the chimney.
Exterior masonry chimneys
Refer to the National Fuel Gas Code and consult a local
venting HVAC contractor. Not recommended in cold
climates.
3.6.6
Horizontal terminations
• For horizontal vent runs less than 5 linear feet, the
entire vent run must pitch down to termination 1/4"
per foot to eliminate the danger of rain from entering
the venting system.
• The exhaust vent must terminate immediately once it
penetrates the outside wall.
• An approved vent terminator must be used. See
Table 4 for known approved horizontal vent
terminations.
• Install an additional condensate drain (not supplied)
if the total straight vent length is greater than 5 feet
or if the exhaust vent pipe passes through an
unconditioned space.
• Terminating the intake air piping above the exhaust
termination is not recommended.
• Fig. 17 and table 6 show the required clearances for
the vent termination. Follow local codes if more
stringent.

Gas piping & connections
Before connecting the gas supply, check the rating
plate on the right side of the heater to be sure that the
heater is rated for the same gas to which it will be
connected.
In the United States: The installation must conform with
local codes or, in the absence of local codes, the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
In Canada: The Installation must conform to CGA B149
INSTALLATION CODES and/or local installation
codes.
manufacturer’s sizing tables to determine the pipe
diameter necessary to accommodate the 175,000 BTU
demand of the heater. If there are more gas drawing
appliances on the line, size the gas line according to the
total maximum amount of BTU draw for all appliances.
Note: Under sizing the gas line may result in diminished
output and improper operation. See chapter 3.8 for the
procedure to confirm gas pressure. Proper gas
pressure must be confirmed at time of installation.
Warning: DO NOT connect to an
unregulated or high pressure propane
line or to a high pressure commercial
natural gas line.
Warning: The heater must be isolated
from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that
system at test pressures equal to or
more than 0.5 psig. If overpressure has
occurred, such as through improper
testing of the gas lines or malfunction of
the supply system, the gas valve must
be checked for safe operation.

GAS CONNECTIONS
B Install a manual gas shut off valve on the gas supply
line.
B Install a union when connecting gas supply.
B The minimum diameter required for any appliance
connector used is ¾” ID.
B National Fuel Gas Code requires that a sediment
trap (drip leg) be installed on gas appliances not so
equipped. The drip leg must be accessible and not
subject to freezing conditions. Install in accordance
with the recommendations of the serving gas
supplier.
Once connections are made, check for gas leaks at all
joints. Apply some gas leak detection solution to all gas
fittings. Bubbles are a sign of a leak. A combustible gas
detector may also be used to detect for leaks.
Danger: If you have a leak, shut off the
gas. Tighten appropriate fittings to stop
leak. Turn the gas on and check again
with a gas leak detection solution.
Never test for gas leaks using a match
or flame.
GAS LINE SIZING
The gas supply piping should be sized for a maximum
draw of 175,000 BTUH. Measure the length of gas
supply line and use the tables in Fig. 22 or the gas line

with cold potable water. It is not
approved
for
preheated
water
applications. See chapter 3.12 for
approved recirculating application.
B Full port shutoff valves should be installed on both
the cold water supply and hot water outlet lines to
facilitate servicing the heater (see Fig. 26).
Warning: In areas where the water
supply has a high mineral content, a
water softener is strongly
recommended. Damage to the water
heater resulting from hard water/scale
deposits will not be covered under
warranty.
Connecting the pressure relief valve (PRV)
B When facing the heater, the ¾” cold inlet connection
is on the bottom right and the hot connection is on
the bottom left. Centrally locating the water heater is
recommended to keep hot water distribution times
even throughout the structure.
Note: If water flow or pressure is low, or heater does
not ignite, check the water inlet filter screen for debris
(see Chapter 5.1).
A listed pressure relief valve supplied with the heater
must be installed at the time of installation. No valve is
to be placed between the PRV and the heater. No
reducing coupling or other restriction may be installed
in the discharge line. The discharge line must be a
minimum of 4” above a drain and installed such that it
allows complete drainage of both the PRV and the line.
The location of the PRV must be readily accessible for
servicing or replacement, and be mounted as close to
the water heater as possible. See Fig. 26. To install the
PRV, a suitable fitting connected to an extension on a
“T” fitting can be sweated to the hot water line.

Warning: If you are unable to perform
the tasks listed below, or need
additional assistance please contact
your original installer/licensed gas
technician.
6.1
Introduction
Many of the questions customers ask regarding
operation of this unit can be answered by following the
troubleshooting steps as outlined below. Visit our web
site at www.boschhotwater.com for more detailed
troubleshooting. For best results, perform each step
before proceeding to the next. The suggested solutions
may require that the cover be taken off. (See Page 5.
Fig. 3).
6.2
Burners do not ignite when hot
water is turned on
1. If the display is blank, verify power to electrical outlet.
(120VAC/60Hz properly grounded circuit required).
Verify that the heater on/off switch is in the on (I)
position.
2. Verify the fuses in the control unit are good.To
access fuses, the control unit must be removed. Go
to www.boschhotwater.com for a detailed service
bulletin on this process. Two spare fuses are located
inside lower access panel of control unit.
3. Make sure cold water inlet connection is plumbed to
the right side of heater when facing unit. See Fig. 25.
4. A minimum of 0.8 gallons per minute (GPM) (3 l/m)
is required to activate the heater. A quart container
should fill in 20 seconds or less to activate heater.
unit's front cover (See Page 5. Fig 3). Check wire
connections between the water valve, control unit
and electrode set. See chapter 9.2 for location of
these parts.
6.3
Water is too hot
1. Selected temperature on the unit is too high. To
lower output temperature, see chapter 4.3.
2. Clean inlet filter screen per chapter 5.1.
3. Inspect the water path for obstructions. Make sure all
showerheads, faucet aerators and whole house
filters are clear of debris.
4. Confirm the heater's gas type coincides with the type
of gas being supplied. See Fig. 2 for location of
rating plate.
5. This model is designed for cold water supply only.
For solar preheated applications, use of the model
125BS is recommended.
6. If the inlet cold water temperature is greater than
70°F due to geographic location avoid restrictive
outlets. Clean all showerheads and faucet aerators. It
may be necessary to upgrade to higher flow rate
fixtures if allowable by local code.
7. In areas where water has a high mineral content,
periodic descaling may necessary. See chapter 5.3
for directions.
8. Ensure that both temperature sensors are making
contact and firmly mounted on their respective cold
and hot water pipes. The hot water sensor should be
located on the horizontal section of the hot water
pipe before it exits the heater. The cold water sensor
is located on the first horizontal section of pipe as the
water comes into the heater.
7. The heater activates when the water flow through the
unit is at or above the required minimum of 0.8 GPM
(3 l/m). A crossover creates back pressure on the
water flowing through the heater. Therefore, a higher
flow rate than normal is needed to force the heater to
activate. To check for a plumbing crossover, shut off
the cold water supply feed to the water heater. Then
open all of the hot water taps served by the heater.
Wait 10 minutes and check for water flow at taps.
There should be no water flowing. Any continuous
flow of water indicates a crossover is present and
must be corrected. Consult a professional plumber
for help in correcting a crossover. Failing single lever
faucets and mixing valves are common causes of
plumbing crossovers.
6.4
Water is not hot enough
1. Selected temperature on the unit is too low. To raise
output temperature, see chapter 4.3.
2. Clean inlet filter screen. See chapter 5.1.
4. Confirm the heater's gas type coincides with the type
of gas being supplied. See Fig. 2 for location of
rating plate.
5. Check inlet gas particle screen for blockage at gas
inlet connection on bottom of unit.
6. Verify gas pressure is in accordance with
specifications in chapter 3.8. A gas pressure reading
is needed to proceed further. Contact your original
installer or a local certified gas technician to obtain
this reading.
8. With the ON/OFF switch turned to OFF (O) position
and the power supply cord unplugged, remove the
6 720 608 263

Troubleshooting
7. Cold water is mixing into the hot water lines
(plumbing crossover). A plumbing crossover can
unintentionally mix cold water with the hot water
leaving the heater. The end result is a cooler water
temperature than desired. To check for a plumbing
crossover, shut off the cold water supply feed to the
water heater. Then open all of the hot water taps
served by the heater. Wait 10 minutes and check all
taps for water flow. There should be no water
flowing. Any continuous flow of water, small or large,
indicates a crossover and must be corrected. Failing
single lever faucets and mixing valves are common
causes of plumbing crossovers.
8. Ensure that both temperature sensors are making
contact and firmly mounted on their respective cold
and hot water pipes. The hot water sensor should be
located on the horizontal section of the hot water
pipe before it exits the heater. The cold water sensor
is located on the first horizontal section of pipe as the
water comes into the heater.
6.5
Low water flow/pressure
1. Too many hot water applications are being used
simultaneously or too much flow is demanded. The
water heater will effectively support two 2.0-2.5
GPM shower heads simultaneously or multiple sink
applications. Greater draws will result in a water
pressure drop and reduced flow at taps.
2. Ensure that gas pressure is in accordance with
specifications in chapter 3.8. A gas pressure reading
is needed to proceed further. Contact your original
installer or a local certified gas technician to obtain
this reading. If gas pressure is inadequate, the water
heater will close its motorized water valve, reducing
the hot water flow rate in an attempt to reach the
selected output temperature.
3. If selected temperature on the unit is set too high for
the demanded flow rate, the water heater will close
its motorized water valve, reducing the hot water flow
rate in an attempt to reach the selected output
temperature. Lowering the selected temperature will
allow the motorized water valve to open up for
increased water flow rate.
6.6
Hot water temperature fluctuates
at tap
Note: Temperature fluctuations from hot to cold during
use are typically caused by a restriction in the hot water
flow from the tankless heater. This slows the flow within
the tankless heater, decreasing it below the activation
flow rate, which shuts off the burners. The end result is
nothing but cold water coming out of the outlet. Follow
34
each step below before proceeding to the next. After
each step, test the hot water flow to see if it remains
constant without turning cold.
1. Check for restrictions in plumbing outlets, which
could limit hot water flow and may contribute to
heater deactivation. For sinks, remove faucet aerator.
Flush and clean screen and reinstall. For showers,
remove showerhead and flush. If plugged with mineral deposits, clean according to manufacturer’s suggestions or replace shower head. (If showerhead is
wand style/hand held, corrugated tube connecting to
head may be too restrictive. Use a larger tube or
replace with a normal showerhead.)
3. Check for a plumbing crossover by closing the
installer supplied cold water shut off valve (if none
installed, install before proceeding) and opening all
hot water taps supplied by the heater. Wait 5
minutes and check all taps. The water flow should
come to a complete stop at every tap. Any water
running, even a trickle, is a sign of a plumbing
crossover. Consult a local plumber or service person
for help. This condition must be corrected before the
heater can operate properly.
4. Confirm water pressure is adequate and constant..
Water pressure must stay above 30psi during heater
operation. For installation on a private well system
with the use of a pressure tank, the lowest pressure
range setting recommended is 30-50 psi (2.07-3.45
bar). The use of a pressure reducing/regulating valve
directly after the pressure tank is an effective way to
maintain constant water pressure to the water heater.
Watts brand 25AUB-¾” or N35B-¾” pressure
reducing/regulating valves or equivalent is
suggested.
5. Heater deactivated by temperature balancing valves.
If the outlet water temperature is set too high, the
heater can produce temperatures that are too hot. A
temperature balance shower valve will automatically
mix in cold water to reduce such hot water temperature. In the event of any temperature instability at a fixture using a temperature balancing valve, refer to the
valve manufacturer for instructions on internal adjustment setting. An adjustment should be made to minimize the amount of cold water the valve is adding.
Additionally, the temperature setting on the heater
can be lowered to prevent the temperature balance
valve from mixing in too much cold.
6.7
Noisy burner/heater during
operation
1. Sealed combustion leak. Make sure cover is securely
fastened. Ensure the exhaust vent adaptor is properly
sealed with supplied gasket. Leaky seals create
improper combustion resulting in noise.
6 720 608 263
Troubleshooting
2. Improper venting. Venting that is unsealed, the wrong
material, too big in diameter or too long in run will
result in unstable burner flames and noise. Ensure
venting is correct and in accordance with
specifications in chapter 3.6.
3. Lack of adequate combustion air. Drawing
combustion air from a room area of inadequate size
or improper piping of combustion air from the outside
will result in unstable burner flames and noise.
Ensure adequate combustion air is provided to the
unit in accordance with specifications in Section 3.5
Combustion Air Requirements.
4. Cross contamination. Ensure that intake and exhaust
terminations maintain required clearances stated in
the manual. Cross contamination between intake and
exhaust may cause unstable burner flames and noise.
5. Lack of gas pressure. Inadequate gas pressure will
cause the fuel-to-air mixture (CO2) to be out of
adjustment. This will result in unstable burner flames
and noise. Ensure gas pressure is in accordance with
specifications in Section 3.8 Measuring Gas
Pressure. A gas pressure reading is needed to
proceed further. Contact your original installer or a
local certified gas technician to obtain this reading.
6. Verify proper CO2 readings per chapter 5.4. CO2
adjustments must be done by a certified gas
technician with a calibrated combustion gas
analyzer.
